B) most white colonists were farmers who prospered due to affordable land

The majority of white colonists were small farmers who had access to relatively affordable land. This allowed many of them to achieve a measure of prosperity and stability, contributing to the growth of the middle class in the colonies. The combination of available land and opportunities for economic advancement made it possible for a large segment of the population to attain middle-class status.
